Biology

Physiology

Much like its pre-evolution, Lickilicky is fat in appearance. However, it has a slightly darker skin tone. It has a small tail and a long tongue. It has a yellow line pattern on its belly and a white bib-like pattern, making it almost resemble a round baby boy. It also has what appears to be a curled appendage on its head.

Behavior

Lickilicky have big appetites, similar to Lickitung. They are known to lick anything or anyone close by for any leftover crumbs. Its saliva can decompose anything, and it wraps its long tongue around things to coat them with its sticky saliva. It has space in its throat to store saliva, and it can also roll up its tongue and store it in the same spot.

Habitat

Lickilicky live in forests with a large body of water, like Lickitung.

In The Rise of Darkrai manga

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

After a wild Lickitung stole Diamond's map (among others belonging to passerby citizens), Diamond fought it with his Shieldon, but it evolved into Lickilicky and became even more difficult to catch. Eventually, by utilizing the Dowsing Machine and Pedometer apps on his Pokétch, he captured it and named it Kit. It was then helpful for rescuing one of Professor Rowan's assistants when his lab was attacked by Mars' flock of Yanmega.

Lickilicky is the only Normal-type Pokémon (besides Smeargle) to learn Explosion, and therefore, the only one to receive STAB from it. Furthermore if it holds a Silk Scarf, Life Orb, or Choice Band, this is further multiplied, making it the highest-powered move of all, not considering type matchups.

Lickilicky is the only Pokémon that needs to know Rollout to evolve.

Despite having a clearly visible tail, Lickilicky belongs to a group of Pokémon which lack tails.

Origin

Similar to its pre-evolution Lickitung, it may be based on lizards like iguanas and chameleons due to its long tongue and somewhat reptilian appearance. On the other hand, Lickilicky’s bulbous body makes it resemble a round baby. Moreover, considering the white bib-like pattern on Lickilicky’s torso and Lickilicky’s voracious appetite, Lickilicky may be based on an exaggerated concept of a bloated gourmand, perhaps dressed in macaroni-style or dandy-style fashion.

Name origin

Lickilicky is a repetition of lick in the slang form, licky.

Berobelt may be any combination of べろ bero (tongue), ベロベロ berobero (onomatopoeia for licking), and べろっと berotto (licking or sticking out one's tongue).
